I am a person that does not like to complain. When i come
into contact with someone who i do not particularly like i
am very cordial and try to see the good in them. My co-
teacher is a complete nightmare for me. Prior to begining
my experience she had emailed and asked when i was
starting. I emailed her back and informed her of when i
was told to start, i also mentioned in that email that if
she wnated me to i would have no problem coming in earlier
if she wanted me too. I received an email back stating
that the time i was given was fine for her. My first day i
arriving she jumped down my throat i felt like and asked if
the principal mentioned anything to me about my start date,
because the other student teachers started the week
before. That was my first impression of her and our
relationship. I know she has personally issues going on,
but i don't feel as though she is approachable for
information. She never informs me information regarding
school spirit, or anything in that regard. She only speaks
to me if there is someone else is in the room, otherwise
she is busy reading her email. i have never student taught
before and i do not know if this normal or not. I feel as
though if i don't answer the way she wants me too or agree
with her she is jumping down throat and becoming
defensive. I go in early, stay late when needed, and
volunteer when possible. When she asks me to submit lesson
plans i do so. Any advice on how to handle her or the
situation.
